    The Special Control Unit against Money Laundering, SCUML, and the Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit NFIU, have deepened their collaboration through a training on compliance with Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Counter-Terrorism Financing (CFT) laws for key industry practitioners in Nigeria’s gaming sector.

    Dele Oyewale, EFCC’s Head of Media and Publicity disclosed this in a statement signed on Monday.

    The training was jointly organized by the Association of Nigerian Bookmakers, Nigeria Licensed Lottery Operators Forum, and the Association of Casino Operators.

    The event which had support from the Lagos State Lotteries and Gaming held on Friday, May 16, 2025 at Radisson Blu Hotel, Ikeja, Lagos.

    Assistant Commander of the EFCC, ACE 1 Ibinabo Amachree, Head, SCUML, Lagos, provided insights on operators’ obligations under the Money Laundering (Prevention and Prohibition) Act, 2022, and Nigeria’s broader efforts to improve its AML/CFT compliance posture.

    Participants were sensitized on risk-based compliance approaches, Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements, Suspicious Transaction Reports (STRs), and emerging typologies of money laundering within the gaming ecosystem.

    The session also featured technical presentations and guidance from officials of NFIU.

    The event provided a platform for dialogue, knowledge exchange, and a renewed commitment by gaming operators to adopt global best practices.

    It also contributed to Nigeria’s efforts toward exiting the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) grey list.

    The training marked a significant milestone in fostering regulatory awareness and operational readiness among gaming industry operators in line with national AML/CFT priorities.
